Is this a first, second or third generation FT Cube?
Says 2nd gen in the specs. Also comes with gen 3 remote.
I prefer the 2nd gen to the 3rd. I returned the 3rd. It was slightly faster, but we found the picture quality lacking. I am tempted, but donât really need another fire device.
The warranty is confusing go me. It states it has the same warranty as a new device. But it also says 90 day woot warranty.
Letâs ask @ThunderThighs
Sorry for the confusion. Itâs a 90-day Woot warranty.
my 2nd gen.
I currently have three 4K FireSticks running on a separate 5k wifi segment. Is the cube enough of an upgrade to warrant the cost of replacing a working solution?
IMO, heck yeah it is!
Maybe not all 3, but I upgraded my primary to the cube and I love it.
This is a great price but we just upgraded to the 3rd gen and I had no idea how bad the lag was loading apps. I wouldnât be able to go back to our gen 2 anymore, gen 3 is just too snappy.
Honestly Alexa listened so much better on the 2nd gen lol. 3rd gen mic sucks
Iâm really not sure how this all works?
Is it better than 4k Fire stick?
Just some info for people thinking of buying: I have 2 of these, and both of them have problems when set to 4K. They work fine except once in a while it will âglitchâ and stop the video thatâs playing. Happens on both my 2nd gen cubes at 4K, doesnât happen with my 4K sticks, and doesnât happen if cubes are set to 1080.
Also if you go to amazon trade in youâll see that they donât accept trade in at all for cubes, so I believe they are aware of a problem. This annoys me because these were pretty expensive, I feel that the least they should do is give you $5 and a discount on another device for a trade in.
Anyway, I have a 4K stick and a 4k Max stick and both work fine. My advice would be get a 4K max stick unless you really need the extra memory in the cube, or you want it to also act like a âhands freeâ echo device. A new 4K max stick is the same price as they are asking for this, and has WiFi 6.
delivery is horrible was promiced on 12th recieved it at the post office instead of UPS on the 15th . it was bounced around at UPS two days and was then delivered to Post Office instead of my home . very disappointed in WOOT and Amazon
Sounds like you should have UPS and the post office on that list.
Yeah, Amazon chooses the most economical way to ship. Sometimes that âSurePostâ in which UPS hands off to your post office. We donât get a say in how they ship. Sorry.
I ordered this thing April 7th and it told me the estimated delivery date was Friday the 14th. Itâs now the 20th and when I look at my order history it still just shows preparing to ship. Any idea whatâs going on???
Somethings not right. Have you wrote into customer service?
